ATLANTA FALCONS

Atlanta Falcons lost against the New Orleans Saints have many fans wondering about Mike Smith's play calling but hey Atlanta fans Falcons are still in control and ready to Rise Up!

Atlanta Falcons opened the year with high expectations of competing for a Super Bowl during the 2011-2012 season but are sitting at 3-3 and third in the NFC South. Fans were expecting an offensive explosion this season.

As the 2009 NFL season wraps up, we look back at the five best Atlanta Falcons of the past decade.

This is my prediction for the 2009 season for Atlanta Falcons.

The Atlanta Falcons have established themselves as the team to beat in the NFC and one of the reasons for this is they have avoided major injuries for the most part.

The Atlanta Falcons worked in a few needs with their seven NFL Draft picks but it wasn't a draft that will be remembered next year.

The 5-4 Atlanta Falcons face the 5-4 New York Giants in a game both teams badly need to win.

The Atlanta Falcons have got to be pleased to be playing some football as they travel to Minnesota to face the Vikings in week one. Finally they can put some energies into moving forward and forgetting the Michael Vick dogfighting fiasco.

The Atlanta Falcons have got to feel as though they have been through 10 rounds with Mike Tyson after the off season they endured. They are determined, however, to not allow the Vick drama stop them from a great season.

The Atlanta Falcons signed former New Orleans Saints receiver Joe Horn on Thursday. Horn was released by the Saints last week. The Falcons also have signed cornerback Lewis Sanders.

The biggest problem in 2005 for the Falcons, was the lack of defense. Atlanta ranked 22nd overall in defense last year; not the worst, but definitely not good either.

I don't know what else to say about the Atlanta Falcons except that this is a team that could literally go either, 10-6 or 6-10.
The Falcons got off to a 6-2 start last season before losing six of their final eight games to finish at 8-8.
